Abbey's Christmas Gift Guide

 

Welcome to my Christmas Gift Guide, featuring my favourite items from our fantastic range of weather instruments. I’m Abbey, ClimeMET’s Content Queen (aka, Marketing Assistant). When I first started working at ClimeMET, I knew next to nothing about weather instruments and how they monitor weather; I didn’t even know what a barometer was!

Almost two years later, my weather knowledge has grown hugely, and I'm so excited to share my top picks for this festive season! Whether you’re looking for the perfect gift for an experienced meteorologist, a dedicated gardener, or just wanting to fill a space on your wall, our instruments blend functionality with elegance. From rain gauges to moon phase clocks, let's discover the perfect weather gifts this holiday season.

 

NEW: Silver Mini Weather Dials

Our bestseller has just had a shiny new addition. Our brand new silver mini dial has been a long-awaited addition to our mini collection, and now our metallic collection is finally complete! Our silver mini dials make the perfect gift for the festive season. Cute and compact, they make for a great stocking filler; however, subtle and sophisticated, they would suit any weather watcher’s home. Both functional yet eye-catching, they bring a touch of elegance to your wall, shed, or garden.

Choose from our range of 6 mini dials: tide clock, time clock, moon phase clock, barometer, hygrometer, or thermometer.

TOP TIP: I purchased a set of 3 to make the most out of the dial range and my wall space.

The silver dial isn't our only new addition; weather-watching has never been easier with our brand-new Mini Dial Display Stand. Subtle and versatile, you can now keep track of the elements from every corner of your home.

 

The Christmas Mini Dial Bauble Gift

This one had to make this year's list! Our Mini Dial Bauble Gift is a functional weather instrument disguised as a Christmas decoration. It’s the perfect stocking filler or a charming addition to your tree. Festive, fun and beautiful, our bauble dials are a unique gifting option. 

What makes this gift so special is that you can curate your perfect bauble dial yourself!

  1. Choose from our 6 dial types (Tide Clock, Time Clock, Moon Phase Clock, Barometer, Hygrometer, or Thermometer)
  2. Choose the colour you would like ( Slate Grey, Classic Cream, Soft Coral, Meadow Green, Golden Bronze, Rose Copper, or Brushed Silver)
  3. To finish, pick your favourite dial wrapping (Green paper with a clear snowflake, natural paper with a wooden snowflake, silver paper with a clear snowflake)

Each bauble gift is hand-wrapped by us with love x

 

The Sun & Shade Soil Thermometer Bundle

Why get one if you can just have two? Whether you're a seasoned grower or just beginning your gardening journey, our thermometer bundle makes a great gardening companion. Monitoring both your sunny and shady areas makes it so much easier to understand your garden’s microclimates and choose the perfect planting spots. With its traditional, easy-to-read design and sturdy build, it’s a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves spending time in the garden and watching their space thrive.

 

The Moon Phase Clock

The Moon Phase Clock is my favourite weather dial. I had never seen anything like it before. This clock is a truly unique yet practical accessory for your home, making it a fantastic conversation starter.
Our moon phase clocks track the various phases of the lunar cycle, with each rotation taking exactly 29 days, 12 hours, and 44 minutes. This clock not only serves as a practical tool for monitoring the lunar phases but also adds personality and elegance to your home decor. If you're looking for a gift that is guaranteed to get people talking, look no further! Our moon phase clocks are the perfect gift for stargazers or anyone who enjoys the serenity of the night sky. 
Did I mention that our Moon Phase Clock has appeared on ITV’s This Morning in a Secret Santa special!

 

The Dog Walker's Weather Dial

Our Dog Walker's Dial is a four-legged upgrade from our classic combined dial and tide clock. The combined dial is the perfect all-rounder, monitoring air pressure, temperature and humidity levels. And the tide clock is great for dog owners living by the coast, where tracking the tides is essential for a safe and enjoyable walk on the beachfront. For these reasons, it makes it to my favourites list!

As an avid dog walker, I love this paw-fect addition to this weather instrument. Personalising your dial with both your dog’s name and a friendly message makes this dial a fantastic gift for dog lovers.  

Weather-watching just got a woofing lot easier!

 

The 'Gainsborough' Banjo Barometer

This is the most traditional instrument to secure a spot in my gift guide. I was pleasantly surprised to discover how elegant this barometer was. This barometer won’t take up too much space on your wall. The traditional style and mahogany stain make our banjo barometer a timeless statement piece with an option to add a personalised message on an engraved plaque, making it a great birthday present or retirement gift. Similar to the combined dial, our banjo barometer not only monitors air pressure but also measures humidity and temperature simultaneously.

 

NEW: Gardening Gift Sets

New for 2025, our Gardening Gift Sets are the perfect gifts for any gardener. Our gift sets are thoughtfully curated and packed with a range of gardening essentials, from garden twine to a personalised wooden plaque. From hand scrub to non-slip gardening gloves, each of our gift boxes offers something a little different for the gardener in your life. As a beginner gardener myself, these gift sets have been a great starter kit to begin my gardening journey.

💚 Our Nourishing Set includes: Meadow Green Hygrometer or Thermometer dial/personalised wooden plaque/gardeners' hand scrub/green garden twine/plantable seed pots/seedling sticks/sage and thyme seeds.

The Professional Orwell Copper Rain Gauge

Elevate your garden with our Professional Orwell Copper Rain Gauge. Unlike standard versions, our copper rain gauges are both functional and visually appealing, crafted from stout copper sheets with soldered seams for a premium yet rustic look.

Our copper rain gauges redefine the typical appearance of gardening equipment. We imagine gardening tools to be hardwearing, industrial and somewhat basic in design, our copper rain gauge is high quality, unique and beautiful!

What makes these premium rain gauges worth the price tag is that they are widely used by meteorologists. They are used as educational resources for academics and avid gardeners for their straightforward measurement process and lifetime value.

 

Thank you for reading through my festive picks! I hope you’ve found a little inspiration for thoughtful gifts that celebrate the great outdoors, and I wish you a wonderfully cosy and joy-filled festive season.
